Despite dual cameras
Nokia PureView imaging does not cover dual camera shot imaging that allows taking images using the front facing and rear cameras at the same time. The lack of Instagram is replaced by GlamMe and users can opt for the 6Tag app from Wi
The editors didn't like
No storage expansion
Shot to shot time can be slow
It is completely unreasonable to say that I would prefer if the camera did not take over a second to save the beautiful images it takes since what it's doing with that time is crunching a kiloton of data
But yes
It would be nice if the images saved fast
Costly
No External Storage Option
Adds bulk to the camera
Poor battery
Camera is slow to get going
Shottoshot time should have been less
Not many games available on WP8 platform
Lacks memory card slot
Camera protrusion on back
Uneven weight distribution
Non removable battery
Heavy Phone
Expensive
Nokia Pro Cam app lags
Windows Phone is very limiting
A great sensor
Lens and optics stack coupled with advanced manual controls from Pro Cam app makes Lumia 1020 the top camera smartphone of this year. Lumia 1020 as a package offers a great display

Best camera ever on a smartphone. Excellent manual camera controls. Easy-to-use OS.
Big. Expensive. Slow shot-to-shot times. Windows Phone is out of the mainstream for photo apps and communities
